Infants' Knowledge of Objects: Beyond Object Files and Object Tracking.
Carey, Susan; Xu, Fei
Cognition, v80 n1-2 p179-213 Jun 2001
Examines evidence that the research community studying infants' object concept and the community concerned with adult object-based attention have been studying the same natural kind. Maintains that the discovery that the object representations of young infants are the same as the object files of mid-level visual cognition has implications for both fields. (Author/KB)
